spirit_of_town_hall Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 Reading "stickmans weekly report" earlier, there is a photo of a down and out type person sitting down with a bag . Its "VI", a good friend from Kent who came out to Thailand in 2004. I had been trying to call him lately and hadnt been able to get through. Does his mother know?

chuckwoww Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 Reading Stick's comment I suspect this guy wants nothing to do with farang. He probably finds Thais more tolerant and less judgmental. No doubt he has a few personal problems as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spirit_of_town_hall Posted April 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 You have met him, its Rustys friend from Kent remember. STH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckwoww Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 I wouldn't have recognized him. I knew a bloke in Chiang Mai who went that way. He managed to stay for about 10 years with no visa. The cops just left him alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redbaron Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 if that's the original VI he's looking rough... glad to hear he's still alive though. He definately survived a lot longer than I predicted. The girl sick of looking after him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangkoktraveler Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 No Visa? Does he have anything going for him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shygye Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 Why is he hanging around Suk soi 18 if he wants to avoid other farangs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashermac Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 Maybe he can't speak Thai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STH Maybe he, VI, needs help from a friend? Do you know anyone who lives in BKK, or better yet, in the area he was seen in on Suk that might be able to assess his situation and mental state? He may be ill and have little money and no way to go home or get the medical attention it seems he likely may need. An intervention. Possibly notify his family he is alive, though looking like he may not be well? Would his family want to know about this and would they possibly want to help him? I'd imagine so. Ask T360 members who live in the area to keep an eye out for him and to contact any friends who might want to help him. I remember the stories of VI from his friends here. It looks like he might need their help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horneytorney Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 there are unfortunately many farangs in similar condition hanging around in lower Sukhumvit! However it is disgusting to take a picture of him in this state and post it on the web! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
